DLL ghost files

[Kolja]

I recently downloaded and ran a DLL PC Doctor diagnostic
tool, which told me that I was missing 256 DLL files.

Many of the DLL files were listed repeatedly, but there
were only 6 in total.

C:\PROGRA~1\Dragon\NATURA~1\Program\dd10edit.dll
(2 instances)

C:\PROGRA~1\Dragon\NATURA~1\Program\dd10sapi.dll
(2 instances)

C:\PROGRA~1\Dragon\NATURA~1\Program\dd10srvr.dll
(2 instances)

C:\PROGRA~1\Dragon\NATURA~1\Program\vocitaud.dll
(4 instances)

C:\PROGRA~1\Dragon\NATURA~1\Program\dd10midl.dll
(244 instances)

C:\Program Files\SideWinder Game Voice Share\MSHVCHAT.DLL
(2 instances)

The thing is, "Dragon Speaking Naturally" and "SideWinder
Game Voice Share" are no longer installed on my computer.
In fact, they haven't been for at least 6 months.

How can I get rid of all trace of these programs once and
for all? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

If you still have the product, reinstall, reboot and uninstall.
See if that completes the cleanup.
If not, after the uninstall, delete the dragon folder
from the "program files" folder.
